Talc is the major component of most powder makeup products, including MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation. It is an abrasive/scrub ingredient that has outstanding spreadability for a smooth application and low covering power, which means it has translucency to avoid clown-like effects. Silica is a viscosity controlling ingredient that is often in products that are supposed to keep your skin matte as it has great oil-absorbing properties. Isostearyl Palmitate and Methicone are emollient ingredients that help to soften and smooth the skin. Caprylyl Glycol is a moisturizer/humectant and emollient ingredient that helps to keep the skin hydrated. Hexylene Glycol is a solvent, emulsifying, perfuming, and surfactant/cleansing ingredient that helps to keep the product stable and well-mixed. Phenoxyethanol is a preservative ingredient that helps to prevent the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms in the product.
